Capturing the Thrill of Speed - Viscount Chetwynd's Ford V8 in the MCC Torquay Rally, 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by artist Bill Brunell, we are transported back to the exhilarating world of motor racing in the 1930s. The image showcases a powerful Ford V8, with its distinctive registration number FJO888 proudly displayed on its sleek frame. This vintage car, equipped with a robust 2226 cc engine, was driven by none other than Chetwynd himself – The Viscount. The photograph immortalizes an unforgettable moment during the prestigious M. C. C. Torquay Rally held on July 15th and 16th in 1938. As dust kicks up from beneath the speeding wheels, Chetwynd skillfully maneuvers his vehicle along a rustic country lane lined with trees and quaint cottages. The rally driver's expertise is evident as he navigates through challenging bends and twists. Viscount Chetwynd's remarkable performance earned him a well-deserved silver award at this esteemed event organized by the Motor Cycling Club (MCC). With its monochrome aesthetic capturing every detail of both car and landscape, this print transports us to an era when motoring was not just about speed but also about embracing adventure on open roads. This stunning artwork serves as a testament to British automotive heritage while celebrating aristocratic participation in motorsport during that time period. A true masterpiece for any classic car
